One Life To Live: Casting suggestions

[John]

If you could bring a character back whom it woul it be & who would you want to play them?

Was thinking in s2 Jessica could come back. If BW & ET arent available, my suggestion would be Bethany Joy Lenz

[Chris B]

I would keep the cast mostly the same, just add to it. One person I'd cast is Victoria Rowell as either Jeffrey or Destiny's mom and give her a good story. I'd also bring back Jessica, preferably as Erin Torpey. Bring back Tom Degnan as Joey and Terri Conn as Aubrey. I'd be pretty happy with that.

[Vee]

Tom Degnan and Terri Conn? Who cares about them? Aubrey in particular was wildly unpopular.

Destiny's mom was Tonye Patano. Not exactly Victoria Rowell.

A little off topic, but I'd like if they got Robin Christopher to come on as Skye for an umbrella storyline on both shows, putting them in the same universe again.

They recast Destiny with someone 100 pounds lighter, 5 inches taller, and several shades lighter, so I don't think this would be an issue.

Though the Destiny thing STILL bothers me.

Also - a little off topic, but I'd love of they got Robin Christopher to come on for an umbrella story overarching both shows, to kind of put them in the same universe again.

TP played her grandma. Perhaps Chris meant they should reveal her birth mother is alive in the form of VR?

If they are going to try and make Destiny's character happen, they should bring Greg back. They got rid of him just as those secrets came out and we never got to see much of the fallout in their relationship especially with all that's happened to her since. I'd bring him out of jail now. I would be fine with the original actor but I'd take a recast. Matthew St Patrick would work for me

i really wish they had said she got lapband or something although I guess that work with she being a struggling single mother

[Mr. Vixen]

It would probably have to be a recast. Isn't Terell a series regular on Single Ladies now? And that films in Atlanta I believe.

I thought Tom Degnan was the best Joey since Nathan Fillion. The problem there was terrible writing, but as Kelly Missal showed, with better writing he could work. I also thought he was very good on As the World Turns and had the same issue--bad writing. As for Terri Conn, I found her to be fun. I'm not saying she's the end all to nuOLTL being good, but I liked her well enough.

As for Destiny's mom, I found both parents to be poorly cast. Not in terms of their acting ability, but what could be done with them long term. I could see Rowell as nuDestiny's mother (she needs to be recast too) and then if they revisit the feud with Nora I could see the two working well off each other.

[Dee41]

I liked Destiny's parents (grand parents). Both were great actors. I found Felicia to be more interesting of the two. She had great chemistry with SR and SE. The lived the first with her and Nora.

I wouldn't mind Destiny's biological mother coming to the show in the form of. Victoria Rowell. Greg's explanation for what happened to her never made any sense. Also wouldn't be opposed to seeing Greg back or any of her missing biological family (on her moms side) for an arc. I think it would help develop the character beyond being Jeffrey's sweet/innocent girlfriend

[Winchester91]

As long as it's not Farah Fath. I need her on a certain West Coast soap.



...but seriously, Bree Williamson must be starving for a job. Bring her back!

[cassadine1991]

Isn't.Erin Torpey open to appearing as Jessica again???

[John]

Erin is focusing a lot on music now

[Winchester91]

Erin as a 3rd Lord triplet of Viki's. =] She can be in a band with Blair because we know that Kassie can't help her love affair with the mic.

[Vee]

Jessica is not needed.

[cassadine1991]

So do you mean bring back a character do you mean as a regular or for a guest stint

[Winchester91]

The lack of storylines of the semi-older adults (Cutter, Nat, the tattoo folks) showed how much that age group was lacking.

Full-time.
